Abstract

This paper presents an adaptive backstepping control scheme for electrically driven robotic manipulator (EDRM) system with uncertainties and external disturbances by using neural network disturbance observer (NNDO) and dynamic surface control (DSC) design technique. NNDO is employed to estimate the uncertainties and external disturbances such that the priori information of the unknown dynamics will not be needed. To overcome the problem of “explosion of complexity” inherent in the backstepping design method, the DSC technique is integrated into the adaptive backstepping control design framework, where the NNDOs with adaptive composite law are utilized to compensate the uncertainties and external disturbances of EDRM. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, it can be proven that the closed-loop system is stable in the sense that all the variables are guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded. The results of simulation and experimental tests demonstrate the approximation capability of NNDO and the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive DSC scheme.
